Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys
Required before refurbishment, demolition, or structural alterations, these intrusive surveys identify asbestos within the areas affected by planned building works.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an asbestos survey and what is involved?
The purpose of an asbestos survey is to determine whether asbestos-containing materials are present within a property and assess the risk they may pose. During the inspection, a qualified surveyor will examine accessible areas of the building and, where necessary, take samples from materials suspected to contain asbestos. These samples are then independently analysed by a UKAS-accredited laboratory, with the findings compiled into a detailed report outlining any identified materials and recommended actions.
I’m not sure which asbestos survey I need — can you help?
Yes. The type of asbestos survey required will depend on factors such as the age of the property, how the building is being used, and whether any refurbishment or demolition works are planned. Our team will discuss your situation with you and recommend the most suitable survey based on your requirements and legal responsibilities.
Why is asbestos considered dangerous?
Asbestos itself is not always dangerous if left undisturbed and in good condition. The risk arises when asbestos-containing materials are damaged, cut, drilled, or otherwise disturbed, causing microscopic fibres to become airborne. If inhaled over time, these fibres can lead to serious long-term health conditions, which is why asbestos must be properly identified and managed.
Could asbestos still be present in my property?
If a property was constructed before 2000, there is a possibility that asbestos-containing materials may still be present somewhere within the building. Common examples include insulation boards, textured coatings, ceiling materials, floor tiles, pipe lagging, and roofing products that were widely used in older construction.
What should I do if I think a material contains asbestos?
If you suspect a material may contain asbestos, it is important not to disturb it unnecessarily. Avoid cutting, drilling, sanding, or attempting to remove the material yourself. The safest approach is to arrange a professional inspection or sampling service so the material can be properly assessed and tested.
what should i expect to pay for a professional asbestos survey?
The cost of an asbestos survey can vary depending on the type of survey required, the size and layout of the property, and whether laboratory sampling is needed. We provide clear, competitive quotations based on your specific requirements, with no hidden costs and straightforward advice included as standard.
